Hi,

I'm having two problems with my forum. 

1) When I go to my profile in the forum, the tabbed display box that should display user information is not showing up. It seems collapsed as there is just the border area visible. When I click one of the tabs it opens up a new page, with now styling, just the text.

 

2) Clicking on a user's usernam in the area to the left of a post, does not go to their profile, but opens up a blank (about/blank) page.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

both tend to sound like js conflicts...  see: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....-conflict/

do you have a link to your site?  of course, cant see a profile, but might see obvious conflicts...

worth also trying both with your browser console open and see if any js errors are reported...

I think you are right. I am getting a series of errors. And when I mouseover my avatar, which I think should provide a link to a profile, the link shows up as javascript:void(null).

Here is an error in the console that I'm getting:

    Uncaught ReferenceError: spjDialogAjax is not defined okgo.sunny.net/forum/:193

Guess I'll have to figure otu the source of these conflicts.

Actually 'javascript:void(null)' is exactly what it should be. The issue you have is that the script will not run because somewhere along the line the jQuery engine has been halted by errors.
Looking at the source code to see where these things are loaded from (as per the codex article) is the best starting place.

so would still like a link to your site...  your latest post references okgo.sunny.net but that is not a valid site...

The live site is at okgo.net. Thanks for the help. I undertand that something is halting the jQuery engine, but just trying to find the source of these errors.

The live site, however, is not a good reflection of thing. It loads jQuery outside of WP currently. As I'm trying to fix things, I've shifted the laod for jQuery through WP. I've also fixed some of the js errors I was getting, and am still having trouble. For example, on my profile page the profile box is collapsed. 

Here's a screenshot with the console visible: http://img62.imageshack.us/img.....6/v0rw.png

Thanks for the help!

you can try forum - toolbox - housekeeping and resetting the profile tabs and menus, but doubt it will help...

looks more like a js conflict..  and you have some issues in the console to work through...  but really cannot tell much from an image...

and of course cannot get to the profile page either... 

but there seems to be a general problem with js on your site..  something seems to be mucking with them...  I notice that modernizer may be messing them up.. any way to disable that and verify?  is that coming from your theme?  might try a quick switch to default wp theme and see if any different...
